After receiving the plane mission, Ming Li: ...
Her gaze silently shifted to the female ghost clawing and flailing at the side, and she opened her mouth, saying: That ghost... is this one, right?
The system went silent for a moment, then replied: Yes, Host!
Ming Li's lips twitched. She glanced again at the lunatic ghost beside her. Her slender, jade-like fingers flickered in the air, and a faint red light flashed. The next second, the ghost found she could speak again.
Ah~ Ah??
The ghost tried calling out a couple of times. Upon realizing she could truly speak again, she floated closer to Ming Li. The pain was forgotten as she jabbered away, her white-clad form drifting back and forth before Ming Li. Ming Li's fingers itched, wanting to punch someone, oh no! To punch a ghost.
Female Ghost: How did that cucumber hit me?? How could you see me?? Didn't you not see me before? Were you pretending the whole time? Your acting is too good! It's a shame you don't go into entertainment, why are you playing games! And why aren't you afraid of me? You wouldn't happen to be... *whimper*!

Host, no... no it's not?!
The system was speaking halfway when it discovered, to its dismay, that it too had been silenced...
System: ...pitifully helpless, forget it. Talking too much just brings tears. It might as well go gnaw on a couple of chicken legs to calm its nerves...
With that thought, the system silently left a lit candle for the female ghost, who was as silenced as itself, and then ran off to gnaw on chicken legs...
The female ghost looked at the candle that suddenly appeared before her, her jaw dropping to the ground.
Holy crap, holy crap! Where did this candle come from??
She hadn't heard of any other ghosts in this house!
Completely forgetting she was also a ghost, the female ghost swallowed nervously, her white-sheet-clad body silently drifting backward.
There's a ghost, she's scared...
Seeing this, Ming Li's lips twitched. She got up and went to the refrigerator to get another cucumber and started eating it.
As she was eating, Ming Li felt a chill down her back. When she turned around, it was that same pale, pale face again...
Ming Li: ...
Expressionless, she threw another punch. The ghost's white body traced a beautiful arc through the air before being thrown out of the house.
Female Ghost: ...Holy crap! She really can see me!
Inside the house, Ming Li calmly finished her cucumber, yawned, and walked towards the bedroom.
The sun slanted down, and a full moon hung high in the dark sky.
The wall clock ticked and tocked, and soon it was midnight.
The person on the bed suddenly opened their eyes the moment the second hand struck twelve. A pair of beautiful eyes were very deep. The next second...
Ahhhhh!!!
Looking at the female ghost facing her on the ceiling, Ming Li calmly took out a large iron hammer and swung it. The story repeated itself. The female ghost flew out again, emitting a heart-wrenching scream that even broke her voice...
Ming Li: ...
